It's so boring to go 15km with a battleship and the 10km more and so on.
I think it would have been a great invention.
After a missionrun, just put a lootdrone to action and it runs like a miningdrone. And for the T2 drone, some config possibles to skip fetching ammo or so.
Just a thought.

I wanted to give the same proposition recently So I sign for, and all here who read this post should sign for it, more we are more it'll stay and ccp will notice it.
Having drones who can fetch a loot would be really usefull. Also, it's totally logical that something like this should exist
Another way to rapidly grab loot would be an attractive beam which can bring back targeted containers to your ship in a few seconds
Yes, this is really a pain after having killed 10 pirates and having to make all containers ones by ones Cheers Kat

Edited by: Daiashi on 31/08/2005 17:20:23 signed, but i thought i'd go a bit further than a mere bump:
Utility drones suggestion Obvious possible roles: Scavengers, Armour Reppers, Hull Reppers . . . Moonscanners??
Personally, i'd love to see tackler drones as well, but they would clearly be a combat drone type, so I'm excluding them from this suggestion.
Lets make them very small, as they only need an engine and a 'brain', no guns, no armour, small shield, say 2 - 4m3
Add a small drone bay to all ship types to allow everyone to use at least 1x utility drone, say 2 - 4m3
(the 4m3 limit is to make them smaller than the 5m3 light attack drones, so ships that are not supposed to have attack drones don't suddenly get the ability to use one)
Use existing skills to define the number and operational range of the drones you can use, but add a new 'Utility Drones' skill that bonuses the key attribute for each drone.
Make them cowardly?? Utility drones are NOT designed for use in combat so:
utility drones auto-dock if a hostile entity appears and they will not launch if there is a hostile entity within, say 100km (entity = ship/turret/drone NOT a hostile flagged structure / wall etc.)
One last thing for scavengers, lets make them drag the can to 1km from your ship, so the drones dont need to carry the cargo and you can pick and choose from the loot.
Anyway, that's about as far as I've gone with this idea for now, most of it has probably been suggested before.

Really.
Looting is so boring in EvE. Look at Freelancer, you press a button and automatically collect everything around you using lightning bolts. It's not very realistic but it keeps the pace up. More than anything else, EvE suffers from long periods of boredom. Then when you finally get a fight u need to spend 10 mins flying upto cans Morden drives Volkswagen cars |

I agree. Or a tractor beam to pull loot cans to 1500m range.
